Description

@jharpster

The goal of this task is to model min-roundabouts consistent with the Australian tagging guidelines.

This overpass query will identify nodes tagged as mini-roundabouts.

Suggested Process:

  • Open over-pass turbo and use script listed above.
  • Click at the point and click at Node link to open new tab with feature that needs to be edited
  • Edit data in either JOSM/ID Editor (iD is recommended for this task)
  • Delete highway:mini_roundabout tag from junction using
    image button
  • Use right click at the node in the middle of junction
    image
  • Use Split function from contextual menu by clicking at
    image button
  • Right click at the same node again and use Disconnect function by clicking at
    image button
  • Now make some empty space for new roundabout like it is presented here:
    image
  • Begin inserting the circular features by mapping simple rectangle:
    image
  • Right click at the way of that new rectangle (click in the middle of two nodes) and use Circularize function by clicking
    image
    button
  • If necessary, move roundabout to center it with imagery (
    image
    icon from contextual menu) and adding correct tag to geometry:
  • highway=*
  • junction=roundabout
  • Each entry and exit way should join the roundabout at a separate node.
  • surface=* (where possible from Aerial Imagery)
  • name=* (IF there is a name specific to the junction add)
  • maxspeed=* (If possible from a corroborating source, if not leave it)
  • No need to add oneway=yes tag, as this is implied by the junction=roundabout tag. IF you are drawing roundabout from left to right. If you don’t, you have to put oneway tag.
  • Sources to check: Aerial Imagery, GPS tracks, Strava
